"MYTH: This proposal would eliminate network neutrality over wireless.

FACT: Itâ€™s true that Google previously has advocated for certain openness safeguards to be applied in a similar fashion to what would be applied to wireline services. However, in the spirit of compromise, we have agreed to a proposal that allows this market to remain free from regulation for now, while Congress keeps a watchful eye."

TRANSLATION: This proposal wouldn't do anything for net neutrality for wireless. (Apparently, the wireless market is "more competitive". So that's OK then.)

"Idle computers are the astronomers' playground: Three citizen scientists - a German and an American couple - have discovered a new radio pulsar hidden in data gathered by the Arecibo Observatory. This is the first deep-space discovery by Einstein@Home, which uses donated time from the home and office computers of 250,000 volunteers from 192 different countries."

John Gruber allows a few hypotheses to flourish, and lets some of his sources help, in suggesting that a CDMA version of the iPhone is on the way in January. Apple, he suggests, is about to go for market share - not just raw profit - with the iPhone.

The London cycle hire experiment is turning into a fascinating example of live data updating and analysis. "As you can see, by 9am the rack [at Belgrove St, King's Cross] is full and people arriving are probably having to go to nearby stations to drop their bikes off. But that also means lots of bikes remain in the City during the day â€" which means itâ€™s great for folk dashing around between meetings.

"Interestingly, Hop Exchange, Borough, was one of the busiest stations yesterday, presumably because itâ€™s near London Bridge and started the day with a lot of bikes in the racks. However, it emptied slowly during the evening, and because no bikes were redistributed to it during the night it started today with only a few bikes available, and was empty by 7:30am. A bit useless for anyone planning on getting off a train onto a bike."
